My Lao Vito is 5 yrs old now.
Condition still good, looks still good, engine still good and quiet... But..
I sometimes feel embarrassed as my Vito no have auto door. I think of upgrading to the new Viano but...
My car now, 5 yrs old, I do $50 jobs and I buy new car at $160k, the jobs also at $50, I can't reconcile how to make more money from a new Viano leh...
The no auto door thing is really a "pissed", those kuku just can't figure out how to open or close the door.
But these kuku are usually those normal job i do as normal Taxi with normal rate.
As for you, think it is pretty ok as you do not do as much job per day as MaxiCab driver.
It is important to maintain a low liability in our life, to invest $160k liability for no significant benefit......... hmm....... you backside itchy huh?
u buy now , u will be forever stucked in a cycle of high COEs
Wait till 2016
Thanks Bro for all the advice.
The angel in me is telling me to hold for a while bu the devil in me is tempting me. Telling me getting a new car will bring in more business, your existing clients will be happier, your fuel economy will be better, your maintenance cost will be Lower blah blah blah..
Life's a struggle... Very big struggle... If today kena 4D then ho say lah!
2016 pappies out or???
doubt the COEs won't drop anytime soon..
so if can use, just use 1st & wait for that "right" opportunity..
Mercedes-Benz if you service it as & when its needed then there should be no probs as the engines are reliable..
